Hey people! As the title suggests it, YES, someone just turned the big one-eight and that's ME :) (sorry perasan moment now) but hey, I'm finally legal to drink and have sex, but i mean why would I wanna do that? o.o Everyone asked me like on the day itself and the day after like " So did you drink yesterday/ yet?" or " Did you have sex?" == C'mon people, that's so like uncivilized to do, man
Nevertheless, i did party a little, NOT in the club but in the hood, no, i'm just kidding. I partied in my housing area, Vickery House and had a bbq. I would say that this week is the week that I've been to IGA multiple times and buying so much groceries for the week- from lamb to chicken breast to chicken wings to hot dogs and drinks, plates and cups and cutleries, omg it was quite a huge amount of money spent there. But yeah, it was fun marinating the things the night before and having them cooked the next day and tasting uber yummy. Awesome! Thank you to those who helped me, namely Janna, Audrina, Brenda, Cin and Pak for marinating the food with me and for those who helped to cook, namely Janna, Siew Wen, Audrina, Joanne and Pak. Also, not forgetting Harley and Emma who helped to scrap off the grease on the bbq grill thingy eeeek Just thank you so much people!
ANDDDD not forgetting the 3 awesome birthday cakes that i've got this year (way the celebrate right ;) ) I had one on a Sunday (before my birthday) by Steph's cell :) One on my birthday itself towards the end of the day at 11.30+pm by those in Unit 33, namely Annushia, Nish (or Srree), Janna, Audrina, Siew Wen, Joanne and Cindy. Brenda was unable to make it as her parents were in and that her brother's birthday was the next day, so yeah. And last but not least, the birthday cake last night as Greg's cell :) Thank you guys so much for giving my 18th birthday a great meaning :)
I would say there are lots more memorable and fun memories behind the scenes as well. Imma just list them and elaborate a little :)
1) Phone call from Doro (awww) and a phone call to Jason to ask about my results LOL
2)Kim's visit to the girl's unit in the afternoon before the bbq :) We had a great chat on how Vickery is like, dancing and much more interests, from gossips to funny memories awww :)
3) Harley carrying me up and swinging me around to make the effect of being drunk and dizzy haha i must admit, it was fun, despite the headache though but it was awesome :D Oh and Harley bringing me on the skateboard and i like sat on it while he skated (well he tried to and hey, the skate moved ok? I'm not THAT heavy!), bringing me for a few distance hahaha Not forgetting a whole day spent with him (well until 3pm) from lunching to groceries to chats at my unit so yeah (Y)
4) Wall filled with posts and inbox as well PLUS texts :) I guess that explains it? hahaha
5) Thanks Uncle for the AU$100 ang pao money :) (Bren's dad :) )
6) Oh and the most dreaded thing happened on my birthday as well, though the outcome was alright LOL And that's SPM results were out and yours truly got 6A+s. 2A-s and 2As. Congrats to those who got straight A+s :) Namely, the besties, Susan, Yi Yong and Florence, Geraldine and Daniel. For those i miss out, sorry, that's all i got from my sources soooo yeah :P
So that's my birthday celebration :)
Updates on daily life here:
1) Hmmm the weather's been up and down with us here, being as hot as 30+ degrees on some days and then drops to 17 degrees or more at night or vice versa. The weather is CRAZYYYY :(
2) Assignments and homework has been the usual amount and that's A LOT XD but manageable, i'm still alive right? :D Nevertheless, 2 weeks left for Term 1 and holidays are coming woot woot! Thank God for 2 and a half week of holidays :)
3) Friendship status has increased tremendously after weeks of being forever alone but yeah, have definitely been bonding with the cell people and school people :) Feeling less lonely but still miss people back home :'(
4) Money has been quite a problem, especially with tremendous spending on groceries and i'm just shocked at how much i've spent for the past few weeks, it seems like every time i go and buy groceries, the minimum is like nearing to AU$20 and it fluctuates to about a $40 and i'm like omg what have i been buying? o.o But yeah, i get it's time to be thrifty soon? Prayers for me! thanks
5) Insomnia or as you would call it "the sleeping late syndrome" is back and hitting me down like a boss :( Have been having the tendency to stay up till 3am on Facebook and stuff and it's just tiring my body :( As much as i wanna stop, i can't coz internet's at its best at that time :( That's when Youtube can load, that's when i can tweet and that's when i can play Draw Something :S Gosh stupid internet line :(
I guess that's all? Gonna post this up while i cannnnn toddles :)

Six weeks of awesome goodness
Helloooo I'm back, temporarily as the internet is so much better today AND also that it's the weekends :) woot woot! Nevertheless, next week's packed with tests on Monday, Chem essays on Tuesday and English task on Friday == Not forgetting preparing for Bio investigations also GOSH, basically, tonnes of work coming up so maybe a hiatus may kick in :S
Anyways, aside from the busy-ness of all assignments and homework, let's rejoice again for it is the weekends! WOO! And tonight's the night where I would normally go to cell with Janna and Cindy to IMC's activities and this week's dTeam @ home fun, which means we go to someone's house and have a fellowship.
Well, this week would be the week we're going to Fremantle for dinner. For those who don't know, Fremantle, which is also known as Freo, is known as like this area where it's famous for Fish and Chips and all things seafood (yumm). It has this place called Kaili's where I went to eat Fish & Chips for my other cell (Steph's cell) and I remember having the traditional Fish & Chips. Let's just say it wasn't my cup of tea coz i thought that it was quite bland? And I only ordered like 1 fillet and they had SOO much fries along with it where most of the time I think I was focused on eating the fries more than the fish, sad to say :S Then again, here's a picture of how the traditional Fish & Chips looked like.
Moving on, the past few weeks have been hectic, rushing with time and catching up with studies and (dare i say it?) ... GOING OUT. Haven't gone much to the city these few weeks but have definitely been going out a lot, mostly for groceries though. Then again, i'm always tempted by everything else when I see them :S What can I do? Heart of a true shopper. Yet again, buying them for the long term benefits. For example, the other day I bought Smiggle markers and highlighters after making Happy Birthday signs for dad's birthday that was like just 2 days back.
And gosh, you have no idea how hard it was to take the 4-shots ones LOL Thank goodness I figured out how and I had to move fast. Thank God for fast hands HAHAHA But nevertheless, the pictures turned out great and Dad got a phone call from me later in the afternoon on his birthday before I went to Carousel for groceries and supplies. Aww miss you Dad :)
What else? Hmm, weekly services have been good, especially with Zion Praise Harvest that has continuously been blessing me every week with Bible knowledge and just bringing back the mood I had when I was back in Kuching. However, really miss the Empowered people back in Kuching :) I MISS YOU GUYS :) To even listen to your voices, I literally have to listen to the Empowered CD and that's only like the few of you :( For those whom I don't get to hear, phone calls MAY be on their way ;) You never knowwww :) IMC Youth's have been doing great as well, especially providing care and weekly check ups on us (awww) It just makes me feel important :)
So today, in the afternoon, I have had the fun study time with Brandon in the library. I was checking for Bio books prior to the test on Monday (efficient much XD) But the book was checked out and was waiting for my lecturer to help out with Math work which is getting a lil bit more complicated now. Then, walking out of the study room, bumped into Brandon on the computer who was sending an email for the Volunteering thing for Perth's International Students Festival (or something like that) and yeah, had a mini chat and went back into the study room for a lil bit of studying and homework WHILE waiting for my lecturer.
After a while, I sorta gave up on waiting on my lecturer (who actually asked me to find her 15 minutes before she went off to meet with another student, just in case she forgot about it and hey, i was sorta lazy to walk, so didn't bother much with the help anymore XD) Went back home, bringing Brandon, offered lunch (which was last night's dinner) and went back to the library for more studying. Felt SOOO productive after that :) (Y) Productive day!
Moving on, OH OH more exciting news is that I'm currently watching the new ANTM cycle (Thanks to Jaomi for telling me) And Cycle 18 is more interesting OMG! BRITISH INVASION with 7 Brits and 7 Yanks, battling it out to be America's Next Top Model. The Brits have all been in BNTM (Britain's Next Top Model) before, like I could only remember Jasmia (o.o) for some odd reason. But they are really quite gorgeous. I liked how Annaliese (forgive me if i spell you name wrong, love) and Catherine. I thought that they looked much better than the Yanks (sad to say). Am intrigued by the first episode, can't wait to continue on with it *gasp and screams in excitement* *composes self and cough* Sorry
I guess that's all for now? OH yours truly's birthday is coming up in another 2 weeks :) Sadly, the day after that is when SPM results are out == How nice, but nevertheless, be all be glory to God :D And also, congrats to those who have gotten their STPM results that was released on Dad's birthday :) May you continue on with your education with flying colors :)
And for those who are overworking and burdened by homework and assignments and just things in life, don't add in more burden by letting things accumulate, finish what you can now at this time when you have the time :) Take care and rest well!
With much love and concern xx
